Play date
Don’t you love when spontaneous ideas work out even better than you had imagined? The weather has been sweltering, so rather than hiding in our air conditioned apartment, my boyfriend and I headed outdoors. With a game of Scrabble and a bottle of wine, we spent the evening playing games and enjoying the late summer heat wave.
Pssst…I just added two large pink druzzy necklaces to my Esty shop here!

Ugh, that sounds perfect! I was dying today. I should have done that too.

Hmm… this was probably unintentional, but I’m really liking the black polish with your floral print dress.

There’s something about scrabble pieces in grass. Carefree! Love it.

How cute! My bf and I used to play scrabble all the time. Haven’t in a while, it is so much fun. We became addicted and even downloaded scrabble for our phones
Soooo fun! I am headed to the cottage tonight and will totally be playing scrabble…and be drinking wine…
How fun! I LOVE wine, but my fiance does not. Okay, sometimes he’ll suffer through a glass of really, really sweet dessert wine…ick!
What a beautiful night! I have a feeling summer is going to be winding down here too, i hope we have one nice beach day before it ends, I will def. be bringing the scrabble!
spontaneous ideas are the coolest!
i love that first photo!
Have I ever told you how much I love Scrabble?! This looks like the perfect evening to me:)
love your stemless wine glasses! my husband and I love to play scrabble too
Sounds fun! That wine looks fab too!
What a cute date idea! Looking good over at Refinery!
Very nice.. I love scrabble. I wish it was hot here in Chicago! It’s only in the 60s… crazy August.
this sounds like perfection. Have a great weekend emily.
Oh that sounds so great! I love Scrabble and I LOVE wine!

i am so unbelievably jealous. the bf just started grad school and has 0 free time. im lucky if i get to talk to him- forget about ever seeing him.
sorry- slightly frustrated.
in any case- that looks like an amazing evening! great idea and im glad you were able to enjoy it-
perfection. so happy to have my boy back here…we might just have to break out the scrabble!
Spontaneous plans are always the best – that sounds like the most lovely summer evening.
Fantastic idea!! Taking advantage of those last summer days. Our summer is already over in Montreal- I started wearing sweaters and scarves a few days ago… which I really, really love, I’m such a fall girl!

Sounds like a great time. I love word games, especially Scrabble. What a fabulous idea.
Cute! Love Scrabble!
Honestly sounds lovelyy
Beautiful pics too
i love scrabble! but i can get really competitive. probably annoyingly so
Saw you on Refinery 29 and can’t believe I hadn’t found your blog sooner! You are gorgeous and your Marnis from the last post kick ass…keep up the great work!
I just blogged about how sad I am by these dying summer days – you’re lucky you’re in Cali and these balmy nights can continue!!
Oh how fun! I love scrabble but am horrible. Have a great weekend.
what a great idea
Cute idea! We don’t have A/C so we went out to dinner in an airconditioned restaurant.
The two of you have the sweet type of romance I dream about. You’re the cutest!
you guys seem way too cute.
who won?
i heart scrabble! it gets serious when i have to bust out the OED to prove to kiwi that i do in fact have a bigger vocabulary than him:)
what a lovely lovely date. i am totally stealing this idea.
Sounds like you had the perfect evening
I love board games in the evening. We keep a stash of good games on hand for when TV isn’t appealing
So sweet! I pretty much lay on the floor and whined about the heat. Your idea sounds much better.
oh lovely…
that looks like a lot of fun, but knowing my hubz, we would have to relocate back inside after ten mintues. he doesn’t take well to the heat!
that sounds perfect. spontaneous is the way to go
I love finding out that more and more people love Scrabble. I used to have Scrabble nights with my best friend and her brother, in very random places I might add . . like under a street lamp at the end of her driveway.
that is such a fantastic idea. it’s going to be freaking hot in san francisco this weekend and i’m really excited about all the outdoor activities and dining!
Sounds like a wonderful evening! We’ve not really had a summer in the UK…
Bring on Spring here in Melbourne so that I can enjoy the outdoors like this! Such beautiful photos.
awesome idea!! I like the wine part..he he
This sounds like a perfect evening in my eyes. Oh scrabble, how I love thee!

Scrabble outdoors sounds like the perfect date. I started playing Scrabble with my friend today on facebook… which reminds me, it’s probably my turn…
How fun! And I love the floral print of your dress.

Scrabble is my favorite board game. But alas, no one will play with me. I’ve had more practice than most I guess. You’re a lucky girl.
Great pictures! Looks like you guys had a lovely time in the park
scrabble is really the hot game now! love it ~~
love the summer!!! wish it wouldn’t end !
Sounds like a great idea. Too bad I don’t have the patience for board games.

What a great idea!!!
I found your blog for the first time yesterday. It is unbelievable! Your style is major!!! The food pics are so delicious, too. It’s all really great! Just wanted to let you know how much I love it. You’re definitely a new favorite for me! Stay fabulous…
Looks lovely! Love your orange shoes in the post below.
aw what a great idea!
I so agree. We had one of those on Sat. Decided to pack up the bikes and go on a ride around the lake. It was perfect, and couldn’t have been planned better. Your evening sounds awesome!
sounds wonderful — absolutely live for spontaneity!

Ahh, this is too cute
Vino, board games, and a summer night make such a perfectly relaxing combination.
love,

sounds idyllic
looks perfect
p.s. i have a scrabble-idea for the restaurant – think you’re going to like it – maybe i can persuade you to come over and photograph it with your pretty honey light you always shoot in
can I just say that that sounds like the loveliest idea – how fun!
